Why go there
Harsh but fragile, the rugged natural beauty of Outback NSW has been appreciated for millennia by the region’s Aboriginal inhabitants. Aboriginal artworks, some 30,000 years old, adorn sites in Mutawintji National Park.
At Mungo National Park, the remains of Mungo Man and Mungo Woman date back 40,000 years, making it the oldest known ceremonial burial site in the world. As a result of its significance to mankind, Lake Mungo is recognised as part of Willandra Lakes World Heritage Area.
The Outback is a region of grand horizons, of adventure, emus and opal mines. Here you’ll find some of Australia’s real characters. The light and vibrant colours attract artists and film-makers.
Outback pubs, quirkily decorated and built to quench legendary thirsts, are full of welcoming locals and memorable stories.
